Toyota is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 Camry, Camry Hybrid, RAV4, Corolla, Corolla Matrix, Tundra, Sequoia, Highlander, Highlander Hybrid, Yaris, Scion xB, Scion xD and Pontiac Vibe vehicles. The power window master switch assemblies in some of these vehicles were built using a less precise process for lubricating the internal components of the switch assemblies. Irregularities in this lubrication process may cause the power window master switch assemblies to malfunction and overheat.
If the switch overheats, it may melt, possibly resulting in a fire.
Toyota will notify its owners, and dealers will inspect the switch and apply a special grease that inhibits heat build up or replace any switch damaged by the defect, free of charge. Toyota owners that experience a problem with a switch should not attempt to make repairs, but should contact their Toyota dealer or the Toyota Customer Experience Center at 1-800-331-4331. General Motors will contact the Pontiac Vibe owners affected by this recall and GM dealers will inspect and repair switches as necessary. Those owners may contact Pontiac Customer Care at 1-800-762-2737.

Air bagsApr 3, 2006
ON CERTAIN VEHICLES, DUE TO IMPROPER ASSEMBLY OF THE AIR BAG INFLATOR, WHICH IS USED IN THE SIDE AIR BAG, THE CURTAIN SHIELD AIR BAG, AND THE KNEE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY, SOME INFLATORS WERE PRODUCED WITH AN INSUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF THE HEATING AGENTS NECESSARY FOR PROPER AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. IN THIS CONDITION, THE EXPANSION FORCE OF THE GAS MAY BE INSUFFICIENT TO PROPERLY INFLATE THE AIR BAG WHEN THE SRS SYSTEM IS ACTIVATED DURING A CRASH.
THIS MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY TO THE OCCUPANT IN THE INVOLVED SEATING POSITION IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH.
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE SPECIFIC SRS AIR BAG. THE RECALL BEGAN ON APRIL 6, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT TOYOTA AT 1-888-270-9371, SCION AT 1-866-548-1851, OR LEXUS AT 1-800-255-3987.

CAR IS BURNING 2+ QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES, RESULTING IN 5 QUARTS BURNED OIL PER MONTH. THIS WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE THE ENGINE TO CEASE, MAYBE DURING HIGH SPEED, RESULTING IN A FATAL ACCIDENT.

THE PLASTIC PANEL THAT HOLDS THE AIRBAG ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE (BETWEEN THE WINDSHIELD AND THE DOOR) IS EXPANDED AND BENT. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE AIRBAG OR IF THE AIRBAG IS EXPANDING INSIDE THE PLASTIC PANEL AND THEREFORE IS DEFECTIVE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SINCE CAMRY WAS NOT PART OF THE AIRBAG RECALL AS MANY OTHER TOYOTA MODELS.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY DASHBOARD IS VERY STICKY AND SEEMS TO BE MELTING. WITH THE SLIGHTEST TAP TO IT, PIECES OF THE RUBBER ON THE DASHBOARD WILL BREAK OFF. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND APPARENTLY THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE DASHBOARDS DURING THE TIME I PURCHASED IT BUT BEING THAT I WAS NOT THE OWNER IN TOYOTA'S LOG I WAS NOT NOTIFIED. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA VIA TELEPHONE AND GOTTEN NO RESULTS AND I HAVE WENT TO A TOYOTA LOT AND STILL HAVEN'T GOT ANY RESULTS. ANY AND EVERYTHING IS ABLE TO STICK TO THE DASHBOARDS PUTTING IT AT RISK OF BECOMING HOME FOR MICROORGANISMS AND POSSIBLY CAUSING RESPIRATORY ISSUES FOR ME. I AM NOT ABLE TO DISINFECT THE DASHBOARD BECAUSE EVERYTHING STICKS TO IT. IN THE PAST I WOULD NO DOUBT RECOMMEND TOYOTA TO EVERYONE DUE TO THE FACT THAT MY FAMILY HAS BEEN A LONG TIME SUPPORTER OF TOYOTA BUT CURRENTLY I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THEM BECAUSE THEY REFUSE TO FIX SOMETHING THAT IS A MANUFACTURERS ISSUE.

HAVING A REALLY SCARY DANGEROUS PROBLEM WITH MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY WHILE I'M DRIVING MY CAR ON THE INTERSTATE MY CAR RANDOMLY CUTS OFF IN THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING THIS IS SO DANGEROUS AND UNSAFE AND COULD CAUSE A BAD ACCIDENT
Engine, Mar 2, 2020
IN 2015 I NOTICED I WAS BURNING THROUGH OIL TOO FAST, SO I TOOK MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID IT COULD BE THE PISTON RINGS (A KNOWN PROBLEM, BUT NOT COVERED), AND THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. FAST FORWARD TO JANUARY 2020, AND I'M BURNING THROUGH 2.5 QUARTS EVERY FILL-UP. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND 'CYLINDER 3 MISFIRE' WAS DETECTED ALONG WITH A BAD SPARK PLUG. I HAD TO SPEND AROUND $400 TO FIX A COIL AND SPARK PLUG BECAUSE THE 3RD CYLINDER HAD EXPANDED AND WAS SPILLING OVER. 3 WEEKS LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED WITH ME ADDING 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1/2 TANK. I WAS TOLD THIS WOULD COST UPWARDS OF $2,000-$3,000 TO FIX. I'VE SEEN THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM, ESPECIALLY WITH THE 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY, AND THIS MIGHT BE DUE TO BAD PISTON RINGS. I WAS FORCED TO GET A NEW CAR THIS WEEKEND BECAUSE OF THIS.

NOT ONLY IS IT DANGEROUS TO NOT BE ABLE TO SEE MY SPEED, ITS A POSSIBILITY MY ABS WOULDN'T KICK IN IF NEEDED. REGULAR BRAKES WORK FINE.
